6 Dorm Room Workouts You Can Do With No Equipment Because We Know The Struggle Is Real

Whether you're in a forced triple and can literally feel your roommates breathing on you because of how close the beds are, or your dorm room honestly resembles the size of a shoebox, the struggle of college housing is real. And TBH, that list of dorm room workouts you made the week before moving in is looking less and less doable. But between long lectures and the aggressive amount of homework and back-to-back activities on campus, you're in desperate need of a stress-reliever, and working out is often the best and healthiest way to channel your frustrations.

And don't try to use that no-equipment card as an excuse (I see you, fam). There are tons of exercises that utilize the weight of your own to get you sweating so profusely that your roomie might just call the paramedics to make sure you're OK. I'm kidding, sort of, but for real, why is there no AC in your dorm room?

Here are six equipment-free workouts that you can do in the comfort (is it comfortable though?) of your dorm room.

1. Jump Squats

Oh yeah, you can definitely still maintain those #BootyGains, even with minimal space in your dorm.

Stand with your feet hip-width apart in a squatting position, and jump explosively as you shift your weight onto the balls of your feet.
